Small recycling bag

Excellent quick service from order to delivery. Its a relief to be able to recycle all my empty pill packets rather than going in the bin. It's good to recycle 🙂

Most Useful bag ever

If a Terracycle bag was in a DnD game, it would be a bag of infinite holding! I got about 8 months' worth of blister packets in mine! Worth shelling out for to help the environment!

Medical blister packs recycling

Having recently being diagnosed with a lifelong health condition and having to take medication, I was really concerned about the number of used medication packs I was accumulating.
Thankfully found your recycling options and I’m thrilled with the service. Having spent years ensuring that all my waste products were recycled, I didn’t want to send all the empty blister packs to landfill.
Thank you for a great product and service!

Zero waste bag - small

A great little bag (although it holds a lot of pill packets!). Easy to store and takes way more than you think from looking at the pictures.

Waste saving with zero effort required

Seeing the volume of blister packs I've been able to save from landfill even in a few weeks is eye-opening. I can't believe I used to throw these in the bin when there's such a convenient way of collecting them. And I'm amazed at how many packs one small bag holds. I think this is a great scheme, helping us all make a small but important difference to our planet

Larger than expected

Ordered medium bag for blister packs. It's huge! Should last us a year. Very pleased to be able to recycle them

Great to be able to recycle blister packs.

I unfortunately get through so many medicine blister packs and it bothers me to throw them in the bun. So I loved finding these bags to collect them all for recycling. Super easy to get and return when full. And the medium bag is great value compared to the small. Love my zero waste bags!

Medium Bag

It's brilliant. Much bigger than the medium!!

So quick and easy

Couldn’t be easier to fill, seal and send off

Really easy to use. Great each Time

Useful size

Recycling medication blister packs for a group of elderly ladies. Just the right size for 5 or 6 weeks of collecting.

Zero large bags

I think the zero waste large bags are a great way to send waste, to be recycled by posting, at a in-post locker.

Easy to use

I bought the bags to recycle blister packs and was very happy with how easy everything was.

Good size

The large bag is much better. Started with a small for blister packs but filled it really quick so gone for a large this time.

Easy to post using in-post.
But the cost is a bit much for regular users. I thought the idea was to encourage recycling.
